ECF meaning in Chemistry ?

Answer: What is Elemental Chlorine Free mean?

Elemental chlorine free (ECF) is a technique that uses chlorine dioxide for the bleaching of wood pulp. It does not use elemental chlorine gas during the bleaching process and prevents the formation of dioxins and dioxin-like compounds, carcinogens. The traditional ECF sequence is DEopDEpD: 14 using the common letter symbols for bleaching stages, though many improved sequences are available.: 15 

Totally chlorine free (TCF) is paper that does not use any chlorine compounds for wood pulp bleaching.
